six   六[liu] (the fourth tone) The primitives here are top hat and animal legs. Once again, we glide over them until later.
 

five   五[wu] (the third tone) As with four, we shall postpone learning the primitive elements that make up this character. Note how the general principle we just learned in the preceding frame applies to the writing of the character for five.

four   四[si] (the fourth tone) This character is composed of two primitive elements, mouth 口 and human legs 儿, both of which we will meet in the coming lessons. Assuming that you already knew how to write this character, we will pass over the “story” connected with it until later.

three    三[san] (the first tone) And like the Roman numeral III, which triples the numeral I, the character for three simply triples the single horizontal stroke. In writing it, think of “1+2=3” (一+二=三) in order to keep the middle stroke shorter

Harbin is a town few people in the west have heard of. Harbin is fairly lively these days.
